My blog is new. I need 10 article posts for my blog. How much should I pay for it?

I am the author and owner of Ramen Freak. I work in Windows and Linux mobile computing for a boring, colorless, publicly listed corporation in East Coast USA. I live with Janet (my wife since 1985) and two whimsical cats the size of battle tanks in the lush concrete suburbs of Anytown, Anystate. My wife isn’t ‘big’ on noodles though. Oh well…

how frequent the blog is updated (i.e. what is your posting day — every Tuesday at 8 p.m. is a good starting point)

The Ramen Freak is about all things ramen and noodles, Japanese or not. It focuses on traditional as well as “new wave” or “fusion” recipes and discusses protips for creating the “perfect” noodle dish for the noodle aficionado.

UH-OH…

Thinking from a spiritual perspective, can we say that the journey in recovering from narcissistic abuse a battle of spiritual warfare? Any thoughts on this?

THE 1ST PLACEHOLDER POST: ‘Hello, world!’

The 3rd placeholder post

You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.

If you were a writer for HBO, how would you rewrite the final season of Game of Thrones?

English is the blog’s language, but other languages may appear occasionally (hopefully with an English translation).

Oh, well done, bruv. You’ve made the second biggest blogging mistake.

The second placeholder post is empty. Use it to introduce your blog and yourself.

On the balance of all practical probabilities, it’s easier (and cheaper) to write your own stuff.

There’s no point in backtracking. Don’t bother to re-create those placeholder posts.

Do all you people that took the "jab" feel lied to yet?

the blog’s main language

Addressing your question more directly:—

the blog’s launch date and time

What was your first gay male experience?

This blog was born on Wednesday, September 18, 2024, at 7:21 p.m. EST (23:21 UTC).

Every day, around 7 million blog posts are published on the Internet. You’re fighting for attention and breathing space even with a voice.

I hope you didn’t delete them.

Is it necessary for people to wear towels while showering at gyms? If so, what are some ways to prevent the towel from slipping off and exposing oneself?

If you’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.

This blog updates every Tuesday at 8 p.m. EST (midnight UTC, Wednesday).

Your blog’s editorial window (“niche,” although that’s the wrong word) — what your blog is generally about or tends to focus on

The Sun Is Causing Starlink Satellites To Drop From Space - Daily Kos

I welcome submissions of recipes, stories and photos. Please discuss with me. I am prepared to pay US$1 per word for unique, eye-catching pieces.

Who your blog is aimed at, or who might be interested

The biggest mistake any blogger could make is producing a blog that has no voice — no persona, no personality, no flavour and no perspective behind the words.

Why are there posts saying the T in LGBT should be dropped? With what is happening in the US and beyond against the trans community cause for concern that if this is accepted could it be deemed acceptable to start on the LGB community again?

It’s that straightforward.

Twitter (now X ‘ecks’): xxx

Never mind what the Internet is telling you. The starting rate is US$1 per word for a 300–500-word piece (with minimum 3 photos) that’s unique and exclusive to your blog — with a 30%–50% kill rate for submitted but cancelled acceptance.

Example:—

If you’re running a hobby-horse blog, you generally don’t pay because then you’d be inviting people to guest-post out of interest.

The 'Japanese Walking' Fitness Trend Has Science-Backed Benefits - ScienceAlert

Who you are — you don’t have to disclose your identity, but there must be a person even with a pseudonym (not anonymous) for attracting readers and subscribers

Whatever the editorial window or niche, your blog has a ‘voice.’ That voice is you.

Your writing doesn’t have to be perfect for a blog. It only needs to be reasonably readable — and reasonably formatted (which you still have to do anyway even for a piece written by someone else).

Why was Boromir corrupted by the One Ring, but not Faramir in The Lord of the Rings?

If you succeed, you succeed. If you fail, you fail. It doesn’t matter either way because you still have to do some elementary things.

This is because you’re meant to fill them with pre-prepared copy (text and pictures).

Just carry on from where you are. Stay on target, Luke.

“What if I’ve already deleted those placeholder posts? What if I’ve posted a few posts already?”

Even news agencies like AP, Reuters, AFP, etc (with hundreds of reporters each worldwide) have their own overall ‘corporate’ and ‘news’ persona or voice.

The 4th, 5th and 6th placeholder posts

Your contact details (email at a minimum)

Comments close on all posts after 28 days. Comments should be in English as far as possible, although all languages are welcomed. Comments once posted cannot be retracted or removed, so please comment at your own risk.

You can expect to pay up to US$7 a word with experienced writers or bloggers (with 10+ years’ experience) — same as magazine writing rates.

The first placeholder post is typically headlined “Hello, world!” with no content. Leave it alone. This is your blog’s birth certificate. It helps the search engines to ‘notice’ the launch of your blog.
